z Functions Used: High-speed Counting for a Built-in Input
A high-speed counter input can be used by connecting a rotary encoder to a built-in input. A CP2E
CPU Unit is equipped with more than one high-speed counter input, making it possible to control
devices for multiple axes with a single PLC.
High-speed counters can be used for high-speed processing, using either target value comparison
or range comparison to create interrupts. Interrupt tasks are executed when the counter value
reaches a specific target value or range
.
z Operation Overview
A sheet feeder is controlled to feed constant lengths in a given direction, e.g., for vacuum packing of
food products.
While the pulse count is between 3,500 and 3,550, normal stop position output (CIO 100.02) will be
ON. If the pulse count exceeds 3550, the error stop position output (CIO 100.03) will turn ON.
